NEWS ABOUT OUR BOOK,
THE EVERYDAY FISHERMAN, the BASICS.
After careful consideration on how long the book was, along with the high cost of publishing such a large book, and with the price we would have to charge would
 put our book out of the Everyday Fisherman's reach.
So we decided it would be best to make two shorter books. After going back over all the chapters, we changed the chapters around
and now have two books.
BOOK ONE
THE EVERYDAY FISHERMAN, the BASICS
BOOK ONE, goes over all the bare basics of fishing
for the beginner Everyday Fishermen. In very easy to understand wording so a beginner adult or a with a
little help, a child can even understand.Then there is 
the second book.
BOOK TWO 
THE EVERYDAY FISHERMAN, MORE THAN
JUST BASICS.
Book TWO, covers the next step in fishing from maintenance of your tackle, Electronics, keeping a log, care for your catch and how to stop evasive species from spreading and much more. Book 2 has alot of information to help you advance your knowlege of fishing and things that affect us to make us better fisherman. 

    

Here is an excerpt from Book 1.
HISTORY OF THE SPORT OF FISHING

    The relationship in history of man and fish was started in the dawn of early man. Man was a hunter gatherer, and anything that was edible was fair game. Early man lived in a world that was dangerous and foreboding. If early man was unable to hunt for game or forage for food they starved to death. The animals he hunted were on the most part bigger than their relatives of today.

    Early man knew that in the life giving waters that they drink everyday, there are creatures swimming in that water. They tried to catch these strange creatures with their hands, but found them very fast an slippery. They might be able to catch one now and then, but only when they were very lucky. Although no one knows when, but they did find they could spear the fish with their wood spears that were pointed or later on, tipped with a pointed piece of stone. This stone was flint, basalt, or shale. Early man found that he could shape these special types of stone buy striking it at certain angles, and when pointed properly, 
they were very, very sharp. But at first many fish would slip off this flint tipped spear as the fish struggled. But in a very short time they found that by altering their spear tip by chipping small backward facing barbs into the flint point, he could spear fish and the fish would stay on the spear by the barbs. These barbs made for more fish on the menu with less effort. After a short time they improved the spear into a three prong spear, made completely out of wood. Known today as a trident. They no longer had to spend hours chipping a flint point for their fishing spears.

    Then in some areas where very large fish like the sturgeon were found, they still used their spears . Because the skin of the sturgeon is covered with very hard scales. These scales were big, and overlapped each other. The biggest problem with spearing any fish, was that the fish had to be in shallow water along the shore or in shallow water that they could wade in. Or in an area where a overhang where early man could ambush fish. And the spear was no good for the fish that was out of their reach in deep water. 
    So one day around 30,000 years B.C., early man got the idea to take some small bones from a fish or some wood and tied two pieces together to form the first hook. They then tied the hook onto some sinew from a animal like a deer or elk, or some other large mammal. Then they placed some leftover meat, a worm, grub or something they found, onto the hook and tossed the baited hook   into the deep water where the big fish were. That was the beginning of the art of fishing. Sometime after that, early man slowly perfected the art of forming hooks from bones, and a little later, out of metal.
